If you are filing for bankruptcy, it is important to understand each term so that you understand each person’s role and what is happening.

Whenever you hear someone speak personal finance, do you feel like you’re learning a foreign language? Do you feel lost when reading or hearing financial terminology from your bank, insurance, investment agent, or the IRS? You’re not alone! If you cannot comprehend basic financial concepts, such as interest compounding and financial risk diversification, you're paying higher transaction fees, you pile up unmanageable debts, and you also end up paying higher interest on loans.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.

We live in an extraordinary time. Technological advances are happening at a rate faster than our ability to understand them, and in a world that moves faster than we can imagine, we cannot afford to stand still. These advances bring efficiency and abundance - and they are profoundly deflationary. Our economic systems were built for a pre-technology era when labor and capital were inextricably linked - an era that counted on growth and inflation and an era where we made money from inefficiency.

As a newly divorced single mom making $24,000 per year and facing down $77,000 in debt, Kumiko Love worried constantly about money. She saw what other moms had—vacations, birthday parties, a house full of furniture—and felt ashamed that she and her son lived in a small apartment and ate dinner on the floor. Worse, when her feelings began to exhaust her, she binge-shopped, reasoning that she’d feel better after a trip to the mall.

From the outside, being a landlord may look like an easy job. Once a month you greet your tenants, collect rent from them, and leave. Being a landlord is not as simple as it seems. Just like tenants have their share of responsibilities, so do you as their landlord and property manager. For first-time landlords, all of this can be very overwhelming.

Enlightened me
I learned a lot from this course. It gave me a lot of great tips of dos and don'ts on starting/ running a business. This book has important details for beginners and also much deeper knowledge for the continuation and maintaining already established business.
The language of Debt and Bankruptcy Terms can be complex, hard to understand, and confusing. If you are not familiar with terminologies, it may cause you trouble and may lead to misunderstanding. With the use of this guide, you'll be able to know and memorize each term you need to know and understand.
Knowing Debt and Bankruptcy terms helps you understand and comprehend the most common Debt and Bankruptcy lingo. Each of the terms is explained in detail and also gives practical examples. This guide was written with an emphasis to quickly grasp the context without using jargon.
Through it, broadened my knowledge about Annual Percentage Rate (APR), Asset Protection, Assumable Loan, Bad Credit, Bad Debt, Bailout, Balanced Budget, Bank Run, Bank Stress Tests, Bankruptcy, Blanket Loans, C Corporation, Cash Flow, Cash Reserves, Collateral, Compound Interest, Compounding of Money, Constructive Eviction, Consumer Debt, Core CPI, Cost of Living, and Credit Analysis, among others.

I found it to be a positive approach
I found it to be a positive approach to eliminating debt. Recommend for everyone who needs to follow and remain good habits in finance. This book does address some components that are usually missing or often glossed over because of simplicity rules. The author spends a chapter and makes several references to bankruptcy and how to respond. This includes problems such as garnishment, foreclosure, and repossession. Straight forward with several applicable suggestions; even on dealing with creditors and collection agencies.
